Effects of Monobutyl and Di( <i>n</i> -butyl) Phthalate <i>in Vitro</i> on Steroidogenesis and Leydig Cell Aggregation in Fetal Testis Explants from the Rat: Comparison with Effects <i>in Vivo</i> in the Fetal Rat and Neonatal Marmoset and <i>in Vitro</i> in the Human

Abstract

These findings suggest that MBP/DBP suppresses steroidogenesis by fetal-type Leydig cells in primates as in rodents, but this cannot be studied in vitro.
